Pakistan

The best of all. It is the master of the spy world with the most effective operations, unmatched by others. Even the Military Intelligence (MI) of Pakistan is better than other agencies on the list.

CIA officials have said it is the best. They do everything in secrecy and place moles in other intelligence agencies. They have very good planning, and most missions succeed. They also helped break the Soviet Union along with the CIA.

Pakistan is the best. The ISI is the backbone of Pakistan. It not only fights terrorism in Pakistan but also outside of Pakistan.

Italy

Among the best-trained police forces in the world. They have used sophisticated technology since fighting internal organized crimes and still use it to fight terrorism.

Italy had to cope with red and black terrorism (Communist Red Brigades and Fascist NAR) and has learned from it.

India

We have both IB and RAW for our internal and external protection. No one can even touch us. I just want to know the name of the person who called us cowards. I just pray to God to make your foolishness disappear. This is the land where science was born and where some of the first wars in the world took place. Our kings had spy systems throughout the nation even centuries before B.C.

United States

The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) was once ranked number one in the world. It lost this rank and credibility after the incident of 9/11. Nonetheless, the CIA is serving the USA as one of the best organizations in the country.

It gathers information from inside and outside of the country, analyzes it, and then transfers it to law-making agencies. In this way, rules and laws are formulated that are in the best national interest. The CIA is credited with helping to break the USSR during the Cold War.

The headquarters are in Langley, Virginia, near Washington DC, and it was established in 1947. The CIA is undoubtedly the most famous and popular intelligence agency among the general public worldwide.

United Kingdom

MI6 is an old agency, established in 1909 in the capital city of the UK, London. The agency operates in collaboration with the Internal Security Service and the Government Communications Headquarters.

The basic aim of MI6 is the protection of the state, achieved through spying and counter-spying. About 3,200 officials are presently working day and night to safeguard the national assets of the country. MI6 also plays a significant role in maintaining relations with other countries.

MI6 wasn't even known to exist until recently. They were the ones who set up other agencies such as MOSSAD after the British Empire fell.

Israel

MOSSAD came into existence in 1949 and has been actively working since then. Like other intelligence agencies, it is not a military organization but a non-military one. However, the people enrolled are given military training to meet defense challenges.

The undercover operations of MOSSAD are mind-blowing. MOSSAD plays an important role in the wars Israel faces with other nations. Major dealings of MOSSAD are with Arab countries. This organization also takes care of the Jews and their migration from Syria and other countries.

The headquarters are in Tel Aviv, Israel. Nuclear war was diminished in Israel due to the efforts of this intelligence agency. The faculty includes a total of 1,200 people.

Morocco

Half of the Moroccan population are spies, and half of the Moroccan diaspora are spies as well. That's why the Moroccan secret service is so effective in counter-terrorism.

Moroccan intelligence has been doing a good job of identifying threats not only inside the country but also within European territories.

Russia

The Federal Security Service (FSB) is an organization in Russia, secretly shielding the country from various threats. The agency was established in 1995 and is progressing gradually. The headquarters are in Moscow, and a total of 250,000 people are working to protect the country.

Besides spying on the country's enemies, the FSB also deals with terrorism. It is believed that the organization will be at the top of the list in the years to come due to its extraordinary surveillance abilities.

China

The emerging superpower of the world, China, has one of the best intelligence organizations in the world, the MSS (Ministry of State Security). China faces threats from other superpowers, making it necessary to have an efficient intelligence agency.

The MSS has been working responsibly since its formation. It gathers substantial information about the enemies of China, especially those Communist parties that are against the country. The headquarters are located in the capital, Beijing. Geng Huichang is the director.

Australia is a peaceful country, and this peace is further maintained by ASIS (Australian Secret Intelligence Service), the mystery agency. National and economic assets are secured by ASIS. It also keeps in contact with other agencies around the world.
